I don't know if this was mentioned before (because I'm too tired to go back and re-read all 7 pages of this thread), but I just received the comic Superman: Earth One (vol. 1) for Christmas (and the Death of Superman, but that topic is for another thread). I noticed many of the same themes (plot lines) from this comic were in MoS (and presumably come up in BMvsSM). I wish if MoS was based on this comic they had based it even more so and kept the same villain.* As many of you who know me from my rants, I'm a big hater of Zod. Having him be the big baddie in this film (as in SM:2) seemed repetitive and a lot of been there, done that. Anyway, if anyone else has read this comic, I'd love to know your thoughts on this.
* SPOILER from Superman:Earth One Comic
WHY couldn't they have used ANOTHER villain, this anti-Krypton villain -- the neighboring planet who was enemy to Krypton -- as in this comic as opposed to Zod AGAIN. (yawn, yawn, yawn) The same issues would still have to be addressed. Earth was brought to the edge of destruction due to Superman (or the man who would become Superman) out of no fault of his own.
Reading this comic gave me more insight into the MoS movie than I ever expected. It was really good. I'll have to look and see what/if any sequels are available. I do have a birthday coming up.
